Hoy, 🙂
So I finally went throught the hassle of updating to WordPress 2.9.
I say hassle because, whereas 2.8 was content to run on archaic MySQL versions, 2.9 finally got smart and decided it needs version 5. Alas, for reasons beyond the scope of this post, this machine was still running MySQL 4.0…
I was dreading this process, as every bit of MySQL documentation out there asks us to migrate versions sequentially, rather than skip steps, and most of the versions in between have been discontinued and are no longer available.
So, I decided to risk it and skip ahead directly to the latest version. Fortunately, the folks at MySQL AB know what they’re doing, and 5.5 was able to pick up the old database without a hitch.
Thus, here’s to a few more years of running, now with supported software versions… 🙂 (Not that I write all that much, I know…)
On that note, I’m starting a new software project, and I’m thinking I might finally use this blog for the other purpose it was originally intended for, and report on that project here. We’ll see…
Cheers,
J.

Yes, yes you should… oh *whatever passes as an expression of expectation*
All the bes,
